About Us

After more than a decade of bringing New Orleans-style brass music to Oakland and the Bay Area, West Grand Brass Band is excited to announce an expansion of our musical offerings. While we continue to perform as a full ensemble for parades, festivals, and large events, we're now providing individual musician services to meet the diverse needs of our community.

​

Our talented musicians, each masters of their craft, are now available for intimate performances, specialized events, and custom musical arrangements. Whether you need a solo trumpet for a wedding ceremony, a small horn section for your recording project, a duo for a private dinner party, or individual musicians for music lessons and workshops, our artists bring the same level of professionalism and musical excellence that has made West Grand Brass Band a Bay Area favorite.

​

This evolution allows us to serve a broader range of clients and occasions. From corporate events requiring subtle background music to intimate celebrations needing that perfect musical touch, our individual musicians can adapt to any setting while maintaining the high standards and infectious energy we're known for.

​

Each of our musicians brings years of professional experience, deep roots in jazz and brass traditions, and the versatility to perform across genres—from classic New Orleans jazz and funk to contemporary pop and R&B. When you book one of our individual artists, you're not just hiring a musician; you're partnering with a professional who understands how to read a room, engage an audience, and create the perfect atmosphere for your event.

​

Based in Oakland with strong connections throughout the Bay Area music scene, our individual musicians are ready to bring their expertise directly to your venue, studio, or special occasion.
